Olympus E 420 Suddenly Dead?

My Olympus E420 suddenly cannot be switched on anymore: it's like dead. The battery was full.  I tried it, and some spare batteries,  in an exactly simular camera and they were fine.  I dont see any diffrences with the working camera, no dirt at the three contacts inside to be seen. Nothing broken to be seen, not fallen or so.Twice, the camera suddenly did work again but only for a minut or so. This was when i put in a just recharged battery but this does not happen now anymore.
